The James Add-To Collection (Grade 2)

SongLake Books has designed The James Collection to include 121 books:  6 copies each of 20 titles and 1 hardcover biography.  This set includes some recently published titles too new to be designated as official titles in some older booklists.

The James Collection spans guided reading levels I–L, where you concentrate most of your time in a typical grade 2 classroom and thus need additional titles.  This add-to set is designed to supplement our other grade 2 sets with no duplication.  Different genres at each level offer you more flexibility in choosing titles of interest to your students.

All titles have been hand-picked from approved publishers and reorganized into guided reading sets for classrooms, Title I, and new federal programs such as RTI, i3, et al.  They are also ideal for bookrooms.

Janet Wong's biography, Before It Wriggles Away (Level O), and 6 copies of her Apple Pie Fourth Of July are included in this bookset.  Children are eager to read additional Janet Wong works and try their own hand at writing!

Each collection comes with two lists.  One list is arranged by levels.  The other list is arranged alphabetically.
